For the last eighteen months our friends Charlie and Jenn have been engaging in a weekly obsession of sorts......phase 10, a card game that requires thought and strategy . Needless to say we have all become quite good and in a rather passive-agressive way ... fiercely competitive.
Tonight three consecutive games were in the cards ( no pun intended :0 ) Jenn kicked some major card ass tonight , and I ... quit the first game entirely. After twelve hands of negatives , I cried frigkin" Uncle" bitch and I admit I AM a bad sport BUT I never said that I was a good sport ! Ok, I did jump up right after quitting, busied myself cutting hot fresh brownies and lovingly proceeded to dolip each with a scoop of perfectly melted ice cream! Yummy delish!!! I may be a poor sport but I am not completely heart-less ^^
I think playing cards is therapeutic. When you are concentrating on your hand , and two other peoples hands it doesn't leave much time for idle thoughts. And we all know that idle thoughts do for me &*%^&(*@*& well you know its never good . Sometimes it is fun though....
Charlie said something that makes a lot of sense tonight " forgiveness is not a natural human response , Retaliation, retribution, and revenge those are human reactions , forgiveness is a "god-like"re-action .
Things that make you go HMMMMMMM !
I think it's so true , easier to try and forget than to forgive.
Monday Jon's day off , what will it hold? Gym early before he gets up, maybe the barn if I can get up that early :0 We will either spend the day in the car driving to York to look at a mobile home in Eliot to possibly buy and rent to Jonnie. Plan B would be to fuck around with the people I bought the Escape from and try to convince them to trade !!! Even- steven for a truck with a crew cab on it. I love the Escape but... need a new horse trailer because it has weight restrictions. After thinking long and hard I decided if traded the Escape for a truck I would just fix the trailer I already have !! Brilliant I tell you ! I can't stand not being able to drive Sonny down to Hollis and meeting Alex and Beau or MAYBE Alex and Grace !! Anyway guess which one I would rather be doing?
Come on guess ?
Well, the pups are sleeping contently right next to me , Journey is playing in the background and I think everybody should feel the contentment feel right now. It doesn't happen very often but when you feel really content even a few hours is ............decent :)
